Last year they separated high-priority alternate from everyone else around late March or early April, and sent out a letter to tell you which one you were. Do a search for GW threads around that time last year if you'd like an exact date.
 
May I ask when you interviewed?

GW alternate here.

Inter - 11/7
Alternate - Mid-Dec
 
last year, i'm pretty sure the list was split into "top of the waitlist" and regular waitlist sometime in mid-late march. the top of the list is pretty small and i have a good feeling (although no proof) that all of us got in last year. there were a lot of rumors last year about the list being ranked, but i heard from admissions that the regular list is NOT ranked. maybe it's different this year? i really don't know. i'd imagine the regular waitlist is pretty humongous, so good luck. people definitely were accepted from that group. those of us who got in off the top portion of the list heard around may 11 or so, and i think others heard in later may and maybe june.

good luck to you guys.
 
I'm also on the alternate list. Should I send a letter of interest now or in March when the wait list is divided?
